We met our junior year at UNC-Chapel Hill. We lived in the same apartment complex but didn't realize it until one fateful night when we both met at a mutual friend's apartment. Sam wasn't planning to go out that night, but when he met Kelsey, he knew that he had to impress. Kelsey knew that Sam was special when he starting shag dancing with her in the middle of a crowded bar with absolutely no shame.

Sam proposed on the five year anniversary of our first date. We went out to dinner and Sam suggested that once we get home, we each open a Christmas present early. When we got home, Sam reached under the tree and handed Kelsey a wrapped box (that had been sitting there for weeks!). Kelsey - completely oblivious - unwrapped the gift to find a letter written by Sam and a wooden box. As Kelsey read the letter, Sam took the box from her and opened it to reveal the ring! Sam was nervous and may have forgotten to actually *ask* the question, but Kelsey got the gist and said "yes" anyways!
